This morning’s café read: @lorihetteen’s new book of haikus, Stacks of Kindnesses. Her poems are full of joy and always give me a since of hope.
I’m always down for celebrating the little things, like the lingering light and warmth on the longest day of the year. ☀️ #summersolstice #summersolsticedinner
For the love of poppies 🌸
This morning’s simple brunch: fried eggs and yogurt with mulberries and honey. |
Summer baking | Sweet strawberries and sour rhubarb are ripe during early June. Ramp and morel season came and went in a flash, I know this season will too. Soon, we’ll move on to cucumbers and tomatoes, carrots and green beans, corn and apples. But I hope to stop and rest here in this precious moment. Sure, strawberry season will come around again next year, but life will look a little different. Press pause now. Stop to smell the roses. Bake your strawberry tarts and rhubarb muffins. Feel the breeze flow in through the open kitchen window. Don’t take short cuts or scroll endlessly on the LED screen. Be thankful for the vines that grow outside your bedroom window which produce pink berries and the tree branches with green leaves that sway in the wind. Let yourself cry a bit, because growing up hurts sometimes and tears are apart of letting go. Let yourself be in this moment, however you are. Enjoy the sweet and sour that this season serves up — soon it will move on whether we are ready for it or not.
